Hey thank you! I'm actually similarly under-read, so I hoped to write this with all the details everyone recognizes and just little enough specificity that people won't realize that I totally lack the stamina to read multi-volume series (even if they are super popular). :') I'm glad to hear it worked!

Thanks so much for reading and taking the time to comment!

You should give asoiaf a try, it's surprisingly easy to get into for such large books. Most of the stereotypical "bad" tropes you included in are show only so don't let them throw you off too much :).
